The next front-facing photo (below) taken from a different perspective gives a better representation of true helmet shape. It however gives a lower resolution. So I am providing both photos for detail and helmet shape review.

Mike - you're blowing us away! You have done a fantastic job with your kit. Well done, Trooper!

Our only feedback (that we would like to see before approval) is... your clothes are too clean. Please add some additional weathering to:

  • Pants
  • Gloves
  • Foam on the chest and back armor

We know weathering disappears on photos but the team believes that by adding some weathering to the above items, it'll balance out your entire kit. 

Go play on the beach a bit, hike around in the forest, or go at it with some shoe polish/baby powder/paints.

No need for a full kit-up. You can just send individual photos of the items after you're done.

Let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

I will weather it up some and update the post asap. Thanks for the time you all put in to checking out my work. It means a ton that the team likes what I’ve done. My only goal was to do my very best.

@KOtrooper and the rest of the review team, thank you so much for your time and great feedback. I 100% agree that my soft parts should be just as duty-worn as the rest of the load out. Here are my changes. Thanks to the recent weather here in NorCal, I was able to use mostly real dirt, soil and rocks to dirty, wear and gouge the parts. Hope I hit the mark...

EDIT: I Kept hitting "save" instead of "Other Media". lol. So, anybody that looked right away may not have seen all photos. All updated pics should now be present.
